A dress for Christmas

Finished dress

We needed a new dress for Christmas so cut up an old maternity top for bodice. I found a bit of trim to add a touch of glamour and cut up an old sheet for the lining. The skirt was made using 2 fat quarters and it all worked together pretty well.

It was the first time I’d made a dress with lining and the armholes were a bit tricky for me to do with bias binding but it turned out pretty well. I just can’t get my model to keep still to get a good enough photo.
